            Bug ID: 125081
           Summary: spreadsheets saved in MS Excel format will save with
                    password but on reopening a password is not required
                    so no security.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.3.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)

Description:
Only saving in ODS format saves and retains password protection.
Saving in MS Excel format loses password protection and can be reopened without
a password.. 
Not tried all available formats but there is obviously a problem here that
needs attention.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Save in MS Excel format with password.  Reopen and not asked for password
2.Save in ODS format and password protection retained.
3.Repeat several times

Actual Results:
Same results on different machines, desktops, laptops.

Expected Results:
Expected to be asked for a password on opening a spreadsheet previously saved
in MS Excel format with password set but was not asked for password


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
